Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck look tense during farmers' market outing with new nanny as she continues to wear wedding band on middle finger while his is still off

Since announcing they were splitting almost three months ago, Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck have still managed to play the role of happy family for the sake of their children.

But on Sunday, during a visit to their local farmers' market, their pretense appeared to slip a little at times.

The couple - both 43 - seemed tense during their morning outing, for which they were joined by their three children and one of their new nannies.

Stay simple in a contrast tank by Rag and Bone

Aww, we hate to see these two fighting but at least it gives us a chance to gawp at what Jennifer Garner's wearing. (silver lining?)

Jennifer has a unique way of working with basics, unlike other A-listers she dresses a bit more unassuming-- splurges on important items and relies heavily on the high market for things like jeans and sneakers.

She meant bussiness today as she wore a black silk tank, bordered with a white trim from Rag and Bone. She paired it effortlessly with black trouser pants and court shoes for an overall sophisticated look.

The (almost) all black ensemble was saved by the pop of white in her top and for that we're hot to imitate her look.

Click right to buy Jennier's blouse from OtteNy.com-- the good news is that it's currently marked down to $206.

Though for some, that still might break the bank, so fear not! Because we got you covered in our edit below with more affordable alternatives.

While Jennifer looked downcast, Ben was seen shooting her serious expressions as they walked across a parking lot towards the market.

While she was still wearing her wedding band on her middle finger, Ben's was still off - just as it had been on Friday.

He hasn't been seen with it on for a couple of weeks at least, although when they first split the pair had made it known they'd still keep the gold bands on around their kids.

Family outing: The pair were joined by their three children Violet (in pink dress), Seraphina and Samuel along with one of their new nannies

Rumors had started to swirl of a possible reconciliation between the two after they were seen leaving couples counseling together in Sana Monica on September 4.

But sources close to them moved quickly to quash any suggestion they might get back together, saying they were simply seeking professional help to guide them through the changes that divorce brings. 

In the midst of the split, Ben was hit by claims of a fling with their (now former) nanny, Christine Ouzounian.

A representative for the actor has previously dismissed the reports as 'complete garbage' - but according to sources Ouzounian told friends she had a fling with Affleck last spring.

Ben and Jennifer - who were married for 10 years before announcing their split in June - are back in LA after Garner spent most of the summer filming Miracles From Heaven in Atlanta, Georgia, and Affleck was reprising his role as Batman for Suicide Squad in Toronoto, Canada.

With those projects in the can, it means they can focus more time on caring for their children as their divorce moves forward.

Affleck is also prepping his next project Live By Night, a Prohibition-era drama that he's written and plans to star in and direct.

The film based on the novel by Denis Lehane and set in Boston is scheduled to start filming in November.
